Hi everyone,
I am 22 years old and I have finally decided to go ahead with rhino/septo surgery! I had a bad fall when I was a child that resulted in a small hump, two uneven bumps on the bridge of my nose, uneven nostrils, and the bridge of my nose as well as my septum crooked. My surgery is about 6 weeks away and I am starting to get nervous and anxious.
I have uploaded several photos for you guys to take a look at. My doctor morphed a photo to show me what my results would look like, however I am beginning to wonder if I would prefer more of a slope. What do you guys think?

Hey Guys,
So my surgery date is coming up pretty quickly. Needless to say I am getting pretty nervous! Just had my pre-op appointment yesterday and everything went well. I discussed perhaps having more of a slope. The Dr agreed it would look nice so we are going to go ahead and do that!

Good for you for speaking up! Do you have the morphed picture the doctor gave you? It would be nice to see what it will look like. Good luck!

Hey!
My surgeon is Dr. Oakley Smith. I'll be updating my profile more after my surgery (which is this tuesday). Good luck on your search!

I've researched Dr. Oakley Smith.. Read some really good reviews! Plus he's an ENT specialist as well, so that's a good thing. Thanks. Looking forward to your updates :) Good luck with everything

Hey everyone,
So just about 4 more days to go until my surgery. I just wanted to throw a question out there for anyone who has had to stay in a hotel for their first week of recovery: Is there anything different/any tips you think I should know about?
Thanks!
Ill update Tuesday after my surgery :):):)

Thanks so much for sharing with us on RealSelf! I like both profile morphs a lot! Like Natalia said, I don't see much difference in the frontal pics, so if you want more changed than that make sure you communicate this to your surgeon.
Looking forward to following your journey.
Here's a list of supplies you might need for recovery.
